I'm sick.
Yesterday I gave blood and then came home and discovered I have the flu. I piled an afghan, a quilt and a comforter on top of myself on the couch and shivered until E got home from school. Then I had to go pick up MiniMe from play practice (she got a speaking part!) In order to muster the strength to drive to the school I wrapped myself in my winter coat and forced myself to drink orange juice and water. I went to bed as soon as everyone was home and settled. Thank goodness for responsible children that can get their homework done, find something to eat, and ready themselves for bed and school the next day with little or no input from me.

I was supposed to chaperone a 5th grade field trip today but had to bow out due to my illness. Instead I'm forcing myself to continue to load up on the fluids and eat occassionally to keep my strength up. It isn't working. I just uploaded a new podcast (from yesterday morning) and I'm spent.

Talk to y'all tomorrow.

Here's the LINK to the latest podcast.
